Best Buffalo charge on video

[VINOYASADO]

After watching hundred's of buffalo hunting videos and buff charge, I found this particular one, very very amazing!
Bolt rifle failure, great reaction on th PH!!

If you have a good one or see or happen to you, feel free to post it!!!

Rifle looks to be a square bridge Mauser. Controlled feed. Guessing the shooter short stoked it. Reinforces the need to practice working that bolt.
A few seconds feels like a lifetime under pressure.

Couple of rounds - maybe three - in the dirt? Lucky they didn't have a second wounded animal from a pass through on the first shot.

I know this sounds repetitious, but as clients we have one responsibility - put the first bullet exactly where it needs to go. This one was too high and too far back on a buffalo - would have been an ok high double lung on a whitetail. All were very lucky no one was pounded.

And could that have been a CRF that failed?!? Asking for an R8 owner.

An after thought. That right there maybe the very reason PH’s wear shorts.

Thats a close shave,...OPTICS on the rifle for follow up--->Ugh, not me. It pays to spend a few rounds every range session working yourself into breathing heavy and time rush and run a magazine full at a 10-15 yard target.

Mine did and now it's the R8 and the double for me.

True and learn to shoot down the barrel and not through the scope at that range.

That's a well known CMS video and CMS PHs are very experienced. We can all backseat driver these things but the first shot wasn't good and he could have easily hit the 2nd buff. My guns would have hit both for sure. Something definitely happened on the bolt gun activity.

He could/might have touched him, if you look carefully the second buffalo shrinks or so it seems

The last shot the client take, right next to him, should be put the buff down, But I assume that the situation and nerves makes things quite complicated

Just analyzing the situation, not judging...It's easier from my sofa

Do you think they precipitate or was a fair shooting?
